Dominated from the start, the Atlanta Hawks saw their team-record 19-game win streak - tied for fifth-best in NBA history - snapped on Monday with a 115-100 loss at New Orleans.
Anthony Davis, fourth among NBA scorers, netted 29 points and grabbed 13 rebounds to ignite the Pelicans to their fifth win in six games.
The Hawks, who had not lost since falling to Milwaukee on Dec 26, were foiled in reaching 20 wins in a row as their streak was snapped exactly two years after the Miami Heat began a run of 27 in a row.
